I was moved to the Son Bou resort for personal reasons by the tour operator which I was very happy about as the other resort was a bit of a let down.
Well, the hotel is not as a conventional hotel as it is more like a private apartments complex so the face-to-face treatment with the staff was practicly non existent.
However it was clean and the facilities available to us were just ok.
No entertainment was available at the hotel.
Food was very much the same every where we went and very expensive since the Euro came into place in Spain. By the fourth day my budget run out and had to use my Visa card.
The location was just ok too.
I will not go back to that hotel or to Menorca for that matter.

Had the best ever sun holiday here in August 04.
The complex is well spread out but not too much as every thing is in easy reach.
Three good sized pools, great restaurants with very good food.
The entertainment was good some nights better than others but in all really good fun.
The staff were very nice especially with my two kids who at the time were 7 and 8 yrs.
There is a small games room, a play area(swings etc)a great maze which all of us had great fun in, three water slides which you had to pay a small price for but was worth it. and lots of grass and open spaces for the kids to play in.
It also has a supermarket, launderette, a cash point and plenty of parking spaces if you hire a car.
This is easy the best holiday we have had.

Instead of booking a Package Holiday to a hotel or apartment in Son Bou, we booked a self catering villa with www.son-bou.com. Jules has an excellent selection of apartments & villas throughout Son Bou & San Jaime, in a vast range of prices & sizes. It was much cheaper than booking a villa in a holiday brochure, as their are no supplements for under occupancy.
We opted for a villa with Private Pool to give us privacy and peace and quiet when we wanted it, but we were only a few minutes walk from the San Jaime Complex if we wanted to go out for a drink, dinner or the children wanted to play or swim in the communal apartment areas.
The villa was very well equipped, and offered us complete freedom and privacy. It was fantastic. Booking over the internet is always a bit daunting, but Jules acts as an agent for a well established Villa Company in Menorca (used by many of the leading Tour Operators in the UK) and books the villas & apartments direct. She was fantastic, very "hands on", and took care of every single detail of our holiday. We arrived at the airport, were met personally by a representative of the villa company with our hire car, we had detailed directions and instructions for our arrival, which was invaluable. Everything went like clockwork! Very highly recommended!

We stayed at Son Bou Gardens. Excellent holiday had by all. Fantastic location, 5 mins from beach and close to resort centre. Choice of 2 restaurants/bars situated within the complex providing friendly and efficient service. Each restaurant hosts nightly entertainment, one of which caters mainly for children (with children's mini disco) and the other mainly for the adults.
Apartments good size and good level of cleanliness, all with sea view. Some apartments are situated close to the resort centre which could prove to be a little noisy at night, however, bedrooms are situated at the back which does help!
